Work Begins in Preparationof Juneau SpanReplacementJUNEAU, Alaska (AP) Work has begun

in preparation of construction of a newMendenhall River bridge that will replaceJuneau’s historic Brotherhood Bridge. Plans call for the old bridge to be removed

and disposed of by the end of the year. Thenew, wider bridge that will replace it will beable to handle an expected 50 percentincrease in traffic over the next 75 years,KTOO reported. The work currently being done involves

steel pieces that are being driven into theriver bottom for a trestle. The trestle will cross the river and serve as

a platform for equipment used in construct-ing the replacement bridge, said SeniorProject Manager John Smithson of OrionMarine Contractors. The half-century-old Brotherhood Bridge

does not meet current code, stateDepartment of Transportation EngineeringManager Greg Lockwood said. The pilingsof the bridge, for example, go down only 45ft. (13.7 m) into deposits that would be sub-ject to liquefaction during a major earth-

quake. The pilings of the new bridge will go to

the bedrock or as deep as 290 ft. (88 m). The $25.1 million project also is expected

to improve pedestrian and vehicle traffic ona section of Glacier Highway. On the new bridge, each direction of trav-

el will have two lanes. Also, the roadway onboth sides of the bridge will be expanded,Lockwood said. Before the current bridge is removed in

November, the upstream span of two lanesof the new bridge will be built to allow traf-fic to cross the river, Smithson said. Thedownstream side will be built after that. The project is expected to be finished by

late October 2015. The Brotherhood Bridge had bronze

medallions that were installed when the orig-inal bridge was dedicated in 1965. Thosemedallions have been recovered and will beinstalled in the handrail of the new bridge.

Texas A&M University Travels From Classroom to Work SiteA contingent of construction science

majors from Texas A&M University trav-elled from the classroom to the work site andgot a close-up look at one of the nation’sleading demolition and recycling operations.Cherry Companies of Houston, a member ofthe National Demolition Association(NDA)’s Construction Industry AdvisoryCouncil (CIAC), served as host to the aspir-ing demolition and construction industryprofessionals.“We have a great time exposing these stu-

dents to the role that specialty contractorsplay in the construction industry,” saidLeonard Cherry, president of CherryCompanies and past president of theNational Demolition Association. TheTexas A&M program works closely with theNDA to pique students’ interest in the manyaspects of commercial construction work,including estimating, scheduling, projectmanagement and contract law.“The NDA is most interested in establish-

ing relationships with schools like TexasA&M and our long-time ally, PurdueUniversity, so that our members meet con-struction science students and vice versa,”said Kim Wieland, director of member serv-ices of the NDA.The NDA offers internship opportunities

to construction management majors interest-ed in the field.Back at the Cherry Companies operation

the 25 students travelled from CollegeStation to Houston to view some of the latestdemolition and recycling techniques. Cherry specializes in removing a variety

of structures — from highways and bridgesto industrial plants and commercial build-

ings — and instead of dumping debris inlandfills, the companies recycles the vastmajority of what it demolishes. Among themost commonly recycled materials are con-crete, asphalt, steel, composition shinglesand tires. Cherry’s recycling operation has made the

company one of the largest recyclers inTexas and the Gulf Coast area, producing

collectively at all of its recycling centersmore than two million tons of recycled, sta-bilized materials annually for use in every-thing from parking lots and undergroundutilities to pipeline support and storm sew-ers.The tour included a visit to the site of last

year’s implosion of Houston’s Macy’sdepartment store. There, a crew of morethan 120 workers from various Cherry divi-sions had worked to coordinate all aspects ofthe 10-story building implosion. Workerswere able to remove and recycle some50,000 tons of material by the time the jobwas done.“I really appreciate getting to learn more

about how demolition specialty contractorslike Cherry work, because it gives me betterinsight about bringing these types of compa-nies on future jobs,” said senior Blake Bell,who has already lined up a project managerjob with Balfour Beatty, a global infrastruc-ture services business. “And we’re glad tospread the word about how environmentalstewardship is core to the mission of theNDA,” added NDA’s Wieland.

Wacker Neuson IntroducesVertical Mast Light TowersWacker Neuson is

expanding its light towerline with the addition oftwo models designed forfaster set-up time andeasier operation. TheLTN 6KV and LTN8KV are trailer-mountedvertical mast light tow-ers. The vertical mast ismade of nine robust sec-tions that can be easilyraised and lowered inabout 20 seconds by thepush of a button. Thehydraulically activatedtelescoping mast col-lapses while remainingin the vertical position,eliminating the toweroverhang off the back ofthe trailer. This designdecreases the totallength of the unit, maxi-mizing the number ofmachines that can fit ona standard shippingtruck and in a rental stor-age space. The new LTN 6KV

and LTN 8KV are nar-row body light towersthat are ideally suitedwhenever nighttimeneeds to be converted todaylight. The mastextends 28 ft. (8.5 m)and retracts to just 7 ft.(2.m), lowering the center of gravity, allow-ing for more balanced towing, and makingthe light fixtures more easily accessible torotate. The mast is designed with pulleys onalternating sides, creating a very straight andsturdy tower during operation. The light barrotates 360-degrees and holds four ellipticallight fixtures with 1000 watt metal halidelamps that can be easily directed to offerincreased job site illumination. The new lightbar design also gives the user additionalrange of motion on all four light fixtures,allowing usage in reduced glare applicationssuch as highway construction. Wacker Neuson light towers offer quiet

operation with sound levels as low as 67dB(A) at 23 ft. (7 m), which provides formaximum versatility for almost any applica-tion. A large, 32.5 gal. (123 L) fuel tankallows for continuous lighting/run time overseveral nights of operation without refueling.Four-point jack stands provide for easy lev-eling, stability on uneven terrain and superi-

or wind stability. Lockable full length, highimpact polyethylene side doors are dent andrust proof and provide maximum accessibil-ity for easy servicing and durability for anyjob site application, according to the manu-facturers.The LTN 6KV and LTN 8KV utilize

many of the same components that the cur-rent standard light towers use, including thesame uni-body stamped frame, lights, bal-lasts, engines, and generators. The LTN 6KVis powered by a 13.1 Kubota diesel engineand offers a 6 kW generator. The LTN 8KVis powered by a 15.4 hp Kubota engine andoffers an 8 kW generator. Like the standardlight towers, the vertical mast light towersalso give customers the flexibility to cus-tomize their light tower by choosing from anextensive list of factory installed options,including a cold weather package.




The new LTN 6KV andLTN 8KV are narrow

body light towers thatare ideally suited

whenever nighttimeneeds to be converted

to daylight.

REMAN Program...

Sullair Repairs, ReplacesPortable Air CompressorsSullair, an industry leader on the forefront

of innovative compressed air solutions since1965, recently announced the nation-wideavailability of its “REMAN” factory author-ized remanufacturing program for Sullair1600H AF and 900/1150X HH portable aircompressors.Unlike a refurbishing program in which

selected parts are repaired or replaced oncethey become unusable, the Sullair REMANprogram provides a replacement for T2/T3air compressors with a fully remanufacturedSullair air compressor that features the samefactory warranty as a new unit. Once anexchange takes place, Sullair fully disassem-bles the used air compressor core andinspects, cleans and services all of its com-ponents. Only Genuine OEM parts are usedin the process. Extensive testing is conduct-ed, to ensure that the remanufactured unitmeets the original specifications.Sullair initiated this program on a limited

basis late last year with the 1600H AF

portable compressor. Today, the program isbeing rolled out on a nation-wide basis, andexpanded to include the 900/1150X HHportable air compressor.“The early customers that have taken

advantage of the REMAN program describeit as a win-win, because not only do they endup with a like-new air compressor and asame-as-new warranty, but they receive itquickly, which minimizes disruption to theirwork schedules,” said Rebecca O’Mara, sen-ior director of business development, Sullair.“The program has been so successful thatwe’re now able to offer REMAN on anation-wide basis.”Customers wanting to avoid the hassle of

selling their old equipment, or hoping toextend the life of their rental fleets shouldcontact Sullair to find out more about theREMAN program.




Sullair Portable Lines UtilizeEPA Compliant Technology To meet the new Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) Tier-IV standard,Sullair has redesigned its line of portable aircompressors utilizing advanced emissioncontrol technology for compliance withthese guidelines. Decreasing exhaust emis-sions and sulfur levels by as much as 99 per-cent, the new line of compressors offers acleaner alternative to the older Tier-II orTier-III products. Like all Sullair products,the new Tier-IV 1600 family of portable aircompressors was designed for total accessi-bility and reliability, according to the manu-facturer. With the goal of making dependable,

quality products accessible at every level,Sullair also has the Sullair CertifiedREMAN Program. The REMAN program isa factory authorized remanufacturing pro-gram for Sullair 1600H AF portable air com-pressors, featuring genuine OEM parts.Unlike a refurbishing program in whichparts are only replaced once they becomeunusable, the REMAN program begins witha fully disassembled Sullair used air com-pressor core and requires each component toundergo a thorough inspection process.

Following inspection, parts are cleaned,serviced or replaced to ensure that each com-ponent meets the same high standards asnew Sullair products. As a result, SullairCertified REMAN compressors performlike new, and come with the same factorywarranty as a new Sullair air compressor. “Customers wanting to avoid the hassle of

selling their old machinery or hoping toextend the life of their rental fleets can nowconsider our new REMAN program as aneconomically savvy option,” said Carrie-Ann Flank, general manager-portables ofSullair. “Certified REMAN compressorsrun like new and help our customers avoidrental revenue loss with less downtime.”Flank also emphasized that REMAN aircompressors undergo the same rigorous test-ing and quality control as new Sullair aircompressors, and “eliminate the need foradditional service technicians or end usertraining on new Tier-IV machines.”For more information, call 219/879-5451

DARR ADOBE


California Dreaming: Wheel Loader Builds Luxury HomesManhattan Beach, Calif., is a

prime location for those lookingfor the true experience of living inan oceanside community: mereblocks from the beach, it offers thebest of California weather and cul-ture. Construction isn’t the firstthing you think of when inManhattan Beach, but when youdo, you think of CasnerConstruction. “The term ‘Casner Quality’ is

synonymous with high-end resi-dential quality in the South Bayarea,” said Art Jurado, sales con-sultant of Sonsray Machinery insouthern California. “People askfor Casner homes by namebecause they know each home iscrafted with care and built to thehighest of standards while alsooffering a distinct California style.” When a Casner home goes on

the market, the offers come inquickly — and often above askingprice as bidding wars ensue.“Usually within a day or two, Ihave anywhere from three to 10offers on the house,” said CraigCasner, who has been in the home-building business in southernCalifornia since the 1960s. Heearned his license in 1974, and histwo sons, Jeremy and Josh(licensed in 2000) now work in thefamily business and carry on the“Casner Quality” legacy. With his homes in high demand,

Casner places emphasis on being agood neighbor, and completing asmuch of the heavy earthworkrequired for each new home asquickly and efficiently as possible.With that in mind, the companyadded a new Case 1121F wheelloader to its fleet in 2013, and theresults have been encouraging. “The last job we did here in

Hermosa Beach, we had to export500 or 600 yards,” said JeremyCasner. “It was a hillside job. Thecut of the grade had to be flat withthe street in about 80 feet, so wehad some 10-foot verticals. Thismachine hogged the dirt out fasterthan any other machine I've everseen.”

Big Production on SmallSites

While it is the second-largestwheel loader available from Caseand Sonsray, the 1121F fits nicelyinto the sitework performed byCasner. As the company began

looking for a new wheel loader,size, speed and power were impor-tant. The 1121F weighs in at59,191 lbs. (26,849 kg) and offers320 hp (net) and 56,310 lbs.(25,541 kg) of breakout force.Casner outfitted this machine witha 6 cu. yd. (4.6 cu m) bucket andadded radial tires and heavy-dutyaxles for greater traction and morerobust lifting capabilities. Theadded strength and power wererequired as the earthmoving here israrely a day at the beach. “Some jobs you encounter clay

or adobe material, the more expan-sive soil, very dense, very heavy,very wet,” said Jeremy. “It’s defi-nitely more difficult to work in andyou definitely need a heavier-dutymachine to work in that material.”“We have jobs like these where

we have to move thousands ofyards of dirt, and a backhoe will doit but it does it in a lot more timethan this (wheel loader),” saidCraig. “My son Jeremy is intograding, demolition, dirt haulingand dirt moving, and this machinejust does the job three- or four-times as fast as using a backhoe.”“The power, the strength of the

torque, the breakout power that themachine has as far as hogging intoa hillside and going into stockpilesto load trucks, it kills it,” saidJeremy. “I've been an equipmentoperator for probably 15 years onand off. I ran scrapers, I ran exca-vators, I ran wheel loaders and thismachine by far blows those otherpieces of equipment out of thewater.”

Tier IV Engine Technology ReducesEmissions, Noise and Maintenance

Part of being a good workingneighbor in these tight-knit ocean-side communities is bringing eco-logically friendly equipment to thejobsite. California is at the fore-front of emissions regulations, andthe 1121F fits in nicely. Themachine uses selective catalyticreduction (SCR) technology tomeet Tier IV regulations in reduc-ing NOx and particulate matter(pm) emissions. “The older machines that are

belching out giant clouds of blacksmoke are not really friendly to theneighbors or the area,” said Craig.“That equipment has slowly been(replaced) for newer pieces ofmachinery like this loader, andthese new ones are completelyenvironment-friendly.”SCR is well suited for wheel

loaders because it’s an after-treat-ment system that let’s the enginedo what it’s designed to do: gener-ate power at varied engine loads.The technology, which has beenaccepted for several years for on-highway diesel applicationsthroughout North America andEurope, also doesn’t require theuse of regeneration to burn offaccumulated particulate for fasterthrottle response time. The endresult is full power and breakoutforce when needed. Additionally,SCR engines are optimized to cre-ate an efficient combustionprocess. The technology can actu-

ally improve performance becausethe engines breathe more freely,which in turn, results in significantfuel savings.The machine also helps reduce

another byproduct that is particu-larly sensitive to working in resi-dential neighborhoods: noise pol-lution. “It's far quieter than any other

machine of this size that I’ve everdriven or operated,” said Jeremy.“Being inside the cab with the doorclosed, you feel like you are not ina piece of equipment because it isso quiet.”

Optimum Visibility for Working on Tight Sites

The company recently put thewheel loader to work on a 100 by

100 ft. (30.5 by 30.5 m) lot.Although the job site was small,Jeremy said the 1121F is a safeperformer in tight quarters. Key tothose efforts is visibility.“The cab of the machine is very

open, very spacious, glass fromceiling to floor,” he said. “You cansee the ground really well, you cansee on both sides of the machine,you can see between the frontwheels and the bucket when thebucket’s in the air. When you put itin reverse, the backup cameracomes on. You can see what’sbehind the machine, if anyone’sback there. When you are backingup, you know when you are getting

close to something.”A new, wide-angle

lens provides optimalvisibility to the rear ofthe machine through theback-up camera. Thewheel loader also fea-tures the lowest and nar-rowest rear hood in theindustry.“Overall, the visibili-

ty is very good.”

An ExcellentPartner

Casner workedtogether with SonsrayMachinery’s Santa FeSprings branch to selectand spec out the 1121F.With the assistance ofsales consultant ArtJurado and the backingof the company’s serv-

ice department, Craig knows hehas a partner in helping him opti-mize uptime and productivity. “I have a great relationship with

Art going back to the 1980s,” hesaid. “I’ve always had great dealswith him. I have bought a lot ofequipment from him over theyears. 20 or more pieces, includingbackhoes, skip loaders, skid steersand wheel loaders. I have alwaysbeen satisfied.”

Casner Quality — FromEarthmoving to theFinished Product

Taking everything into account,Craig believes the 1121F fits innicely to his primary goals of beinga good neighbor and performingpremium work. If he’s able to do ita bit faster with equipment like the

Representatives of Casner Construction and Sonsray Machineryon a recent job in Manhattan Beach, Calif.

Casner Construction works entirely inresidential neighborhoods — factorssuch as noise and emissions are top ofmind when the company begins work ona new site.

Wheeler Machinery Bulldozes PovertyThis past April, a group of Wheeler

employees journeyed to the Altiplanoregion of Bolivia to serve the remoteAndean village of Alto Peñas locatedroughly 13,500 ft. (4,115 m) above sealevel. During the week-long expedi-tion, a water system more than 3 mi. (5km) long was constructed. Wheeler’sexpedition team worked alongside vil-lagers to dig trenches and connect,place and bury the water pipes. Thewater system, benefitting 80 families,will improve health conditions and per-sonal hygiene as well as decrease theinfant mortality rate.

CHOICE Humanitarian works withmotivated villages to connect them toresources and tools to break the cycleof poverty. As a community, Alto Peñascame together and decided water wasits top priority.

A village committee was formed tooversee the execution of the water proj-ect and ensure problems would befixed if they were to arise. Prior to thearrival of Wheeler’s expedition team,the village laid the ground work for theproject including digging portions ofthe trenches and securing pipes andother supplies. Without a water project,Alto Peñas had no access to cleandrinking water. Villagers drank non-potable water from springs and hand-made wells often contaminated bylatrines.

While in Bolivia, the expeditionteam had the opportunity to visit a dairycooperative processing plant thatWheeler’s dollars are helping to fund.The team also visited a local school andparticipated in a water project dedica-tion at a neighboring village.

Since then, $280,124 has been raisedvia Wheeler employee payroll contri-butions and a generous 2-to-1 companymatch. Wheeler will continue to send agroup of employees on a humanitarianexpedition each year throughout itspartnership with CHOICE provided theannual goal of raising $50,000 is met.

“I applaud Wheeler Machinery fortheir commitment to end poverty in ourback yard and abroad. WheelerMachinery Co. employees are part ofthe corporate movement to create last-ing impact for those living on less thantwo dollars a day. I’m humbled andinspired to partner with such a forwardthinking company,” said Leah Barker,CEO of CHOICE Humanitarian.

Case Brings Dire States Tour to Washington D.C. Case Construction Equipment brought the

Dire States tour to Washington D.C. forInfrastructure Week 2014, a series of eventsdesigned to “explore emerging solutions,innovative approaches and best practicesbeing developed nationwide to modernizeaging infrastructure.” Held May 12 to 16, theweeklong events were planned and organ-ized by a coalition of organizations thatincludes the Metropolitan Policy Program atBrookings, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce,the National Association of Manufacturers(NAM), Building America’s Future and theCouncil on Competitiveness. The weekcoincided with the rollout of the U.S.Senate’s Committee on Environment &Public Works’ MAP-21 Reauthorization Actand the U.S. Chamber’s Business Plan forInfrastructure. “Enacting long-term federal funding is

critical and we support these efforts on anational level to enact a bill that ensures thatthe Highway Trust Fund remains funded,” said Jim Hasler,vice president — Case Construction Equipment, NorthAmerica. “It’s equally important that we work with and iden-tify new methods for state and local governments to fundimportant transportation, public works, energy, utility andhighway projects. National Infrastructure Week reflects thatspirit and has helped amplify the groundswell of support forinfrastructure funding and development.”

The first wave of the Dire States tour featured author andinfrastructure expert Dan McNichol traveling the country ina ’49 Hudson that is as “old, rusty and energy defunct” asAmerica’s infrastructure to raise awareness to the issue.Moving forward, Dire States will work on specific initiativesthroughout the country aimed at bolstering local infrastruc-ture development.“That was an important part of our time in Washington

D.C. — identifying new ways that we canenergize the discussion at the local levelwhile also supporting the need to fix theHighway Trust Fund,” said BrianWeisbaum, project manager of DireStates and dealer marketing manager,Case Construction Equipment. “State andlocal governments can complement feder-al funding with initiatives of their own tonot only maintain the existing infrastruc-ture that is in place, but also take it to thenext level and build infrastructure that hasa positive impact on the community.”

Realigning, Regrading Eastbound Approach Work RemainsBefore the fourth bore opened totraffic late last year, these motoristshad to merge from four freewaylanes into two tunnel lanes. Thiswould cause considerable delays.Since the fourth bore opened totraffic, Caltrans has been able todedicate two tunnel lanes perma-nently in each direction. This hasalso added a lot more predictabili-ty to the daily commute.”Prior to the tunnel opening,

Caltrans and project partners hadworked closely with the CaliforniaState Fire Marshal and emergencyservice and response agencies todevelop an Emergency ResponsePlan outlining emergency scenar-ios in the fourth bore — rangingfrom a stalled vehicle to a 100 mWfire (of the same magnitude as thetragic 1982 fire in third bore of theCaldecott Tunnel.)The tunnel’s fire and life safety

systems, as well as tunnel opera-tors and emergency responsecrews, were put to the test in actingout the emergency scenariosthrough a series of fire drills priorto the tunnel opening. With thesuccessful completion of the firedrills, the State Fire Marshal com-missioned the Caldecott FourthBore on Nov. 15, and it wasopened to traffic at about 4:25 a.m.on Nov. 16.The remaining work currently

underway in the median andapproaches on the western side ofthe tunnel is keeping constructioncrews busy. This work is currentlyfocused on realigning and regrad-ing the eastbound approach to bore#2, which had been designed forboth east and westbound trafficbefore the fourth bore opened.“To minimize impacts to traffic

on state Route 24, and with publicand worker safety considerationsas our highest priority, much of thiswork must be performed at night,”said Morrison.The median work entails the

removal of the k-rail; installationof about 3,000 ft. (900 m) of per-manent concrete barrier rail in themedian — between bores threeand two; and the paving of theshoulders on both sides of the newbarrier.Work also has commenced on

the east side of the tunnel. Therealignment of the eastboundapproach to bore #2 and nighttime

bore 2 closures are expected to bedone over the summer.“We’ll be improving the exist-

ing approach to bore #2 by re-grad-ing and straightening it,” saidMorrison, “but to complete theeastbound realignment work forbores 1 and 2, it is anticipated thatCaltrans will close bore #2 duringnight-time hours for severalmonths.”It is all a question of managing

traffic and to accommodate therealignment work for bore #2, thelanes approaching bore #1 will betemporarily shifted to the southwhere there is a wide shoulder.“The temporary lane realign-

ment approaching bore #1 is clear-ly delineated,” said Morrison.“Work entails the demolition of theexisting barrier rail between bores1 and 2, followed by the construc-tion of permanent concrete barriersand the repaving of the approach.The public has appreciated ourefforts to construct the fourth boreand has been very helpful andpatient in ensuring that we can dothe work efficiently and rapidlyand safely.”A variety of standard excava-

tors, backhoes, compactors, andpavers are being used to completethe remaining work.The completion of the tunnel

was in many ways a Herculeantask that brought together manyelements and technologies andrequired many innovative solu-tions. Crews began work on Jan. 13,

2010 for the $417 million projectto construct a fourth bore (tunnel)for the Caldecott Tunnel. The com-pleted project should be deliveredin fall 2014 after four years of hardand intense efforts to cut throughsome very solid and tough rock.The 3,389-ft. (1,033 m) tunnel

cuts through the Berkeley Hills inthe East Bay to provide an addi-tional link between Oakland andOrinda (Alameda and ContraCosta counties). The project, putforward by the CaliforniaDepartment of Transportation(Caltrans), the Contra CostaTransportation Authority and theAlameda County TransportationCommission, is funded by the fed-eral government’s AmericanRecovery and Reinvestment Act(45 percent) and Contra CostaMeasure J funds (30 percent).

The goal of the project is torelieve westward traffic congestionduring off-peak hours for motoriststraveling on SR 24. The horseshoe-shaped tunnel, 50 ft. (15 m) indiameter, was mined by thesequential excavation method(SEM) or better known as the NewAustrian Tunneling Method(NATM). When complete it willprovide two 12 ft. (3.7 m) lanes, a10 ft. (3 m) shoulder on the northside and a 2 ft (.6 m) shoulder witha 3 ft. (.9 m) walkway on the southside.Tunneling operations on the east

side began in August 2010, while itbegan in February 2011 for thewest side. Crews working on thetop heading met when the initialbreakthrough took place on Nov.29, 2011.The project is being undertaken

by Tutor Saliba Corporation, a sub-sidiary of Tutor Perini Corporation,which is employing 40 subcontrac-tors, including Drill Tech Drilling& Shoring Inc., FoxFireConstructors Inc., Gordon N. BallInc., Harris Salinas Rebar Inc.,Johnson Western Gunite Co.,Roadway Engineering Works Inc.,and Wisko America Inc. At peak,with crews working day and night,there were approximately 200workers on site.“The initial support for the tun-

nel consisted of fiber reinforcedshotcrete, spiles, rockbolts and lat-tice girders,” said Patrick Jennings,project manager of Tutor Saliba.“After the initial support, asmoothing shotcrete layer andwaterproofing was installed. Thefinal fifteen inches reinforced con-crete liner was then placed.Sidewalks, electrical, drainage,metal panels on the sidewalls, ven-tilation systems and a two laneconcrete roadway follow the finallining.”The fourth bore parallels three

existing tunnels and interconnectswith the third tunnel via sevencross passages. The project alsoincludes construction of a new6,000 sq. ft. (1,829 sq m)Operations and MaintenanceCenter (OMC) building — theexisting maintenance building hadto be demolished first), new retain-ing walls and roadway approacheson the east and west sides of thetunnel (54,000 sq. ft. [5,017 sq m]),

Mining the tunnel led to approximately 350,000 tons (317,515 t) ofearth, rock and other materials (spoils) being removed from thesite.

Crews began work on Jan. 13, 2010 for the $417 million project toconstruct a fourth bore (tunnel) for the Caldecott Tunnel, whichis expected to open for traffic in mid-November.

The big challenge asphalt con-tractors face today is how toimprove the quality performanceof asphalt paving through produc-tion, laydown and preservation.

The expectations for ride qualityand durability are greater.Contractors are realizing that yes-terday’s asphalt paving practicesare not good enough today. Thereare higher expectations and morestringent regulations for achievinga smooth, durable road, runway orparking lot.

Paving contractors face two bigthreats to quality results:temperature differentialsand aggregate segrega-tion. Both problems yieldthe same damagingresults: excessive airvoids, aka inadequate den-sity.

Hot-mix asphalt(HMA) temperature dif-ferentials occur whencooler HMA is placed dur-ing the job. This coolermaterial is usually causedby transporting the materi-al to the paver with theoutside and top of the loadcooling faster than theinside. On large mat jobs,the cooler areas will com-pact at a slower rate and reach ces-sation temperature more quicklythan the surrounding mat. Whatcan result are issues with inade-quate compaction in these isolatedareas, which then can causedecreased strength, reduced fatiguelife, accelerated aging/decreaseddurability, rutting, raveling, andmoisture damage. Generally, tem-perature differentials greater thanabout 25F (14C) will cause com-paction problems.

Segregation is a term often used

in paving to describe a number ofthings. An accepted definitioncomes from a 2000 research reportwritten by M. Stroup-Gardiner andE.R. Brown, “NationalCooperative Highway ResearchProgram Report 441: Segregationin Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements.” Itgoes, “Segregation is a lack ofhomogeneity in the hot mix asphaltconstituents of the in-place mat ofsuch a magnitude that there is areasonable expectation of acceler-ated pavement distress(es).”

They point out that “con-

stituents” refers to asphaltbinder, aggregates and airvoids. In essence, segre-gation negatively affectsthe HMA performanceand pavement life. Thechief problems are:reduced fatigue life, rut-ting, raveling and mois-ture damage.

Smoothness is the ulti-mate goal of the pavingcontractor. The finishedpaved mat smoothness iswhat contractors are eval-

uated on and how success is meas-ured. Smoothness matters. Thecontractor can win bonuses or befined based on the finished sur-face’s smoothness measure on theinternational roughness index(IRI).

Minimizing the need for pavingstarts and stops is a major objectivein planning for smoothness.Halting the paving operation candisrupt the uniformity of the pave-ment’s surface and compromisethe smoothness of the mat. Themain reason for unplanned stops in

paving operations is when materialis not available when needed.

Fortunately, asphalt-paving con-tractors today have access to bettertools for ensuring quality resultsand control throughout the pavingproject. One such tool is the mate-rial transfer vehicle (MTV).

MTVs are used to assist thepaver in accepting a regular supplyof HMA. Most pavers can receiveHMA directly from end-dump orlive-bottom trucks, however inmost situations it can be better touse an MTV. Paving machinesusing bottom dump trucks andwindrows require a windrow ele-vator MTV, while other MTVs areused to provide additional surgevolume, which is beneficialbecause it allows the paver to oper-ate continuously without stopping,minimizes truck waiting time at thepaving site and may minimizeaggregate segregation and temper-ature differentials.

Typically windrow elevators arepositioned directly in front ofpavers. They are designed to pickup the HMA windrow and transfer

it to the paver hopper, with the goalof virtually continuous paving andincreased production. When usingwindrows and windrow elevators,the windrow laydown rate mustmatch the paver laydown rate. Ifthe amount of material in thewindrow is too little or too much,the paver may become overloadedor may run dry and have to stop.It’s these stops that result in pave-ment deficiencies.

Surge volume/remixing MTVsare often used in tandem with apaver hopper insert that increasesthe capacity of the paver hopper.The insert is removable and some-times contains remixing apparatus(such as a pugmill) near the bot-tom.

Surge volume/remixing materi-al transfer vehicles offer severalunique advantages to the processof constructing asphalt pave-ments. MTVs can minimizeissues associated with trucking aswell as material and thermal segre-gation.

One MTV manufacturer,Roadtec, offers a solution — itsuniform remixing auger. The anti-segregation auger employs threedifferent pitches that get progres-sively bigger towards the center ofthe MTV. This triple-pitch flight-ing allows for additional materialto enter the auger area each timethe pitch is increased resulting inthorough remixing. Additionally, the Roadtec MTV-

1000 material transfer vehicleoffers another innovation — anoffset gravity transfer, which isdesigned to provide reblending ofasphalt materials just before theyare delivered to the paver, which isengineered to eliminate truck-endsegregation and allow for continu-ous in-line paving. The RoadtecMTVs also have optional windrowattachments that can pick up mate-rial from the windrow and deliverit to the paver properly mixed andat the right temperature through itsprocess.Roadtec invented the concept of

material transfer vehicles in 1989

and currently offers three asphaltremixing devices, representingthree different sizes: the SB-2500e/ex shuttle buggy MTV, theSB-1500 shuttle buggy MTV, andthe MTV-1000 material transfervehicle. The SB-2500e/ex featuresa 25-ton (22.7 t) surge capacity andweighs 78,000 lbs. (35,380 kg).The SB-1500 can store up to 15tons (13.6 t) of asphalt mix andweighs 62,500 lbs. (28,350 kg).And the smaller MTV-1000

weighs 50,000 lbs. (22,680 kg) andcan handle up to 10 tons (9 t) ofasphalt mix.The Roadtec SB-2500e/ex has

recently received what the compa-ny refers to as upgrades, whichinclude the addition of bindicators,devices which show the pavingcrew exactly how much mixremains in the hopper, a Tier IVdiesel engine for North America,enhanced conveyor wear resist-ance, which is intended to lower

operating costs, an adjustablewidth front hopper to make it com-patible with truck widths common-ly used in countries outside theUnited States, and the machine’sdual operator stations can nowslide sideways past the outer edgeof the main frame, which isdeigned to improve visibility.Back in the 1980’s, Roadtec

engineers had been inspired bypavement failure studies that hadbeen conducted and which showedthe significant causes were materi-al segregation. The company’sR&D staff looked at HMA at jobsites with infrared camera and sawdramatic temperature differentialin the mix, even when haul dis-tances were short. The researchshowed that non-uniform com-paction, raveling and strippingcould be directly traced back to thetemperature differential. There aretwo technical papers researchedand written by Roadtec technicalstaff entitled “Segregation: Causesand Cures” and “TemperatureSeg r ega t i on /Tempe r a t u r eDifferential Damage.” The docu-

ments can be found as free down-loads on the Roadtec Web site aspart of the product information onthe SB-2500e/ex shuttle buggyMTV.The original concept of the

MTV still holds today, as it did 25years ago: a machine to “shuttle”HMA between the haul truck andthe paver in order to provide anuninterrupted supply to keep thepaver productive. The ability tohave nonstop paving can reduceproblems of temperature differen-tials and aggregate segregation,thus leading to a much smoother,more durable finished paved sur-face.The emergence of both the

windrow elevator MTV and thesurge volume/remixing MTV areclearly benefiting paving contrac-tors as they pursue smooth, durablepaved surfaces that meet the strin-gent quality standards that theyface today.

WHILE SOME PEOPLE ARE HAVING A PROBLEM GRASPING THE CONCEPT,THEY’RE SURE NOT HAVING ANY DIFFICULTY GRABBING THE RESULTS.

It’s a rubber tire roller that vibrates with enough centrifugal force to equal the out-put of a 55,000 pound pneumatic. The GW750 handles the toughest HMA mixeswith ease, getting balanced high densities from the top through the bottom of themat. Great on SMA, too! And it provides a sound interlock between new overlaysand profiled surfaces. It’s bonus time!

Check one out at your Sakai dealer today.

Caltrans Dedicates Two Tunnel Lanes in Each Directionand a berm and permanent soundwall on the west side.The tunnel, primarily mined

with a 130 ton (118 t) Wirth heavyduty roadheader (Type T3.20) atthe east heading, was completed onSept. 21, 2012. The tunnel’s water-proof membrane, rebar cage, andfinal lining were installed fromwest to east.Mining the tunnel led to approx-

imately 350,000 tons (317,515 t) ofearth, rock and other materials(spoils) being removed from thesite. This was shipped to TreasureIsland and much will be recycledfor use in future projects. “Working under a gassy tunnel

environment was a challenge,”said Bill Monahan, Tutor Saliba’stunnel superintendent. “Thisrequired significant expendituresin adapting equipment for this con-dition. The top heading of the tun-nel was mined completely throughusing roadheaders, followed bysimultaneous bench excavationfrom both the west and east ends.Another challenge was the incor-

poration of microfibers in the con-crete final liner mix, whichreduced the ability to pump thisconcrete over long distances. Theconcrete final liner was placed in50-foot segments using an EFCOtunnel form with a traveler on rails.“The NATM is a process of

sequential excavation in which thelength of the excavated section isbased on the surrounding geolo-gy,” he continued. “The rock isassessed on a scale of one throughfour, with one being the hardestrock. The harder the rock, the far-ther the workers can tunnel beforeinstalling supports.”Crews have made solid progress

and the tunnel is scheduled to opento motorists on the weekend ofNov. 16 according to Caltrans. Thismeans that motorists takingHighway 24 via the East Bay Hillswill have the choice of using twotunnels (four lanes in each direction).Once the roadway and tunnel

walls are completed, the closingphase will have TPC crews finishthe road-striping, link the new tun-nel to the highway, and remove the

including the American flag, silhouettes of soldiers andlogos from all five-armed force divisions. The bucket ofthe crawler excavator collected $19,317.75 in donationsfrom booth visitors, creating a total donation to theWWP of $119,317.75.

A long-time supporter of the U.S. military, Kobelcowas pleased to make this presentation to the WWP.

“We can’t thank the ConExpo/ConAGG attendeesenough for helping us with our WWP fundraiser,” saidRon Hargrave, vice president of operations of KobelcoConstruction Machinery USA. “Kobelco cares aboutour injured military members and their families, and hasreally enjoyed this opportunity to give something backto those men and women who sacrificed their lives tomake ours safer.”

“We are continuously humbled by the generous sup-port of so many businesses and individual Americanswho raise money on our behalf,” said Lolita Jerido,community events manager, Wounded Warrior Project.“Thank you, Kobelco, for creating such a unique eventthat not only celebrated the five branches of our armedforces, but also raised money that is fueling life-savingprograms for our nation’s heroes. You are truly makinga difference in the lives of many.”

John Roberts (L), Houston Chapter of theWounded Warrior Project, presents a plaque ofthanks to Kobelco Construction Machinery USA’sPresident Pete Morita.

A Personal Journey to Heal Himself — and OthersWounded Warrior Relations Executive Vice President John

Roberts of Houston, Texas, accepted the $119,317.75 dona-tion check presented to the Wounded Warrior Project byKobelco Construction Machinery USA.Roberts, himself a wounded veteran, knows just how life-

changing a donation like this can be.In March 1992, while on deployment with the Marine

Corps, his CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter experienced a com-plete engine malfunction off the coast of Somalia and explod-ed in mid-flight. There were 18 Marines onboard; four werekilled. Roberts survived the crash but had third degree burnsover 80 percent of his body and nearly lost his right arm. Hewas sent to Brookes Army Medical Center in San Antonio,Texas, where he spent more than a year recovering, not onlyphysically, but also mentally. Like so many of the wounded warriors of today, Roberts

had begun to experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, orPTSD as it’s commonly called, and started self-medicatingwith alcohol. If it had not been for a fellow Marine whooffered to help him, Roberts might not be here today, he said.With the support of this fellow Marine, Roberts began a newmission to assist his fellow veterans and in 2003, theDepartment of Veterans Affairs sent him to Walter Reed ArmyMedical Center in Washington, D.C., where he spent sixmonths helping injured service members and their families toobtain their VA benefits. Roberts had found his new passion and mission in life —

he would do everything he could to take care of the newestgeneration of wounded warriors. That led him to theWounded Warrior Project.One of Roberts’s proudest achievements so far with the

WWP has been the development of a mental health programfor the Wounded Warriors Project where the participants feelsafe talking about their problems and challenges with theirpeers.As for his own healing, Roberts has come a long way, and

while his physical scars are are only noticeable if you lookhard, his emotional healing is very apparent. “When you

have third degree burns over 80 percent of your body, youcan get one hell of a facelift!” he said. With his sense ofhumor still intact, Roberts said he is a much better person nowthan he was before he was injured. Roberts said every dayhe is living the logo of the Wounded Warrior Project, whichis one warrior helping another warrior. The Wounded Warrior Project was formed in 2001

because its founders saw that many of the needs of returningwounded service members were not being met. The foundersdecided that the WWP would be a different kind of veterans’charity in that the organization would not accept governmentfunding and would remain true to the mission of “honoringand empowering wounded warriors.” The WoundedWarrior Project relies solely on the American public to standbehind it and to support the 20 different programs and serv-ices, such as Project Odyssey, TRACK, and the TransitionalTraining Academy. These programs are designed to meet thegrowing needs of this newest generation of wounded war-riors.According to Roberts and the WWP, without the generos-

ity of the American public and companies like Kobelco, thesewounded warriors would simply “fall through the cracks” andbecome just another statistic. They would not be able to reachtheir goal of ensuring that this is the most well-adjusted gen-eration of wounded warriors in our nation’s history. TheWounded Warrior Project’s holistic approach to serviceincludes not only the warrior, but his or her family as well. Theservices encompass the mind, body, economic empower-ment and engagement. Without addressing all of theseareas, the wounded warrior will be less likely to fully recoverand will have a harder time adjusting to his or her “new nor-mal,” according to the organization. Roberts joined the United States Marine Corps in 1982 at

the age of 17. He was medically discharged from the UnitedStates Marine Corps in 1996 with 14 years of service as acombat platoon sergeant. Roberts has been with theWounded Warrior Project for eight years. He and his familylive in the Houston, Texas, area.

Casner Uses Case 1121F toPerform Premium Work1121F, that helps contribute to an equallyimportant quality: profitability. “It’s time versus money,” said Craig. “The

longer a project takes, your profit margin isspread over the number of days you invest ina project. If you’re in and out of a project ineight to ten days, that’s apremium versus a projectthat takes longer becauseyou’re going to make thesame amount of money. Itjust took you twice as longto make it.”“This machine here,

it’ll do all what we need inhalf the time or one-fourththe time that the smallermachine will need.”At the end of the day, it

all culminates into a totalpackage that Craig ishappy to bless with hisfamily’s name. “Everything has to be

premium, because when

my name goes on the presale list they use thephrase ‘Casner Quality.’ They expect every-thing to be first class. That’s what I givethem.”

Current Estimates IndicateFund Will Empty By Julysix-year high. The latest total exceeded theyear-ago level by 17 percent. Single-familyconstruction rose 1.3 percent in April and 14percent year-over-year. Multifamily spend-ing soared 4.4 percent and 31 percent,respectively. Improvements to existing sin-gle- and multifamily structures slumped 2.2percent for the month but increased 17 per-cent from a year ago.Private nonresidential spending dipped

0.1 percent in April but climbed 5.6 percentover 12 months. Most major categoriesincreased from year-ago levels. However,the largest private segment, power construc-tion — comprising work on oil and gasfields and pipelines as well as electricityprojects — slipped 0.6 percent for the monthand 3.9 percent over the year. The fastest-growing private type was office construc-tion, which jumped 3.1 percent in April and26 percent since April 2013.Public construction spending rose 0.8 per-

cent for the month and 1.2 percent year-over-year. The largest public segment, highwayand street construction, declined 1.1 percent

in April but increased 4.9 percent from a yearbefore. The second-biggest category, educa-tional construction, gained 3.0 percent and4.9 percent, respectively.“The outlook for the rest of 2014 remains

uneven,” Simonson predicted. “Demand forapartments appears to be very strong, but thereare several warning signs about homebuild-ing. Despite dropping last month, power andmanufacturing construction should remain theleading private nonresidential categories, withhefty growth for the year as a whole. Therebound in public construction that occurredlast month may not be repeated soon.”Association officials said that public

investments in highway and street construc-tion will decline significantly unless Congressand the Obama administration act beforeJuly to shore up the Federal Highway TrustFund. Current estimates indicate the fundwill run out of money by July, likely puttinga halt to federal spending on surface trans-portation projects across the country.
